    Thundersprint

    Holy snapping duckshit. Clock these pictures from the 2012 Thundersprint in the UK. There are some epic bikes in that lot as well as a few slightly nutty ones...

    Also gives credence to the quality of the NZ Classics fest. You can see the majority of those machines there too.

    The only difference being that there are bikes from every era and some very humble ones to boot. I love the eccentric English attitude to taking totally unsuitable vehicles and still having a go....

    Hey Stephen I managed a few days in Tokyo just last month and I was surprised at lack of motorbikes on the streets - stayed at a hotel at Tokyo Station and looked around places like Chiyoda, Ginza, Akihabara, Shinjuku, Shibuya, Hamamatsucho and Minato. I didn't have time to be really sussing it out but where are the bikes to be found? The trains were a different story of course, packed with people and going everywhere.

    Young kids are moving away from owning car/bikes

    lots of scooters , as these are used to go to the shops , but the train system is so good you really dont need a car or bike

    BUT , when they DO become bike nuts ,,,,,they dont hold back ,,,trust me
